Hi all! I have not posted in quite some time. I guess I should put a reminder on my calendar to post. SORRY! Okay so let's see what is new in my crazy world.
I am now in my 18th week, which is great almost half way through this pregnancy. WOO HOO! I have been battling a sinus infection that kept me out of work for two days last Friday and Monday. In that time from Thursday (At My Dr's Appt) I lost two lbs. Not good, but not bad either. So last Thursday I got to meet my new Dr, as my original Dr, Dr Fox, had her baby and is no longer practicing. My new one is named Maggie Aliabadi. She isn't an actual doctor, she's a Registered Nurse Practitioner. She can do everything a OB can do except deliver the baby. That is fine by me. So at that appointment I weighed 156, (about the same weight I started at being prego) and had normal blood pressure. We got to hear the baby's hear beat - something we hadn't gotten to hear yet. On Tuesday I called the dr's office because my urine was a redish color. I went in on Wednesday and they did a culture on my urine. Turns out I have some extra protiens in there, and am very dehyrdated. I have been drinking LOTS of water/cranberry juice and trying to keep as much food down as possible. I'm not too hungry with this infection I have, but I'm trying. They just told me to keep them updated if it is still like that in a week.
I go in next for THE ULTRASOUND (you know, the one to find out what I'm having....) on 6/3. WOO HOO! At that time I also have to give blood & urine, no regular visit with the Maggie until 6/19. I've been very tired lately - probably due to the sinus infection, and also just worn down. I am trying to get as much rest as possible, but with a three year old it seems impossible.
JJ is good, starting to have a cold/allergies - we arent' sure which yet. He got to stay home with Dad today. Something he might get to do more often soon, depending on if Josh's LNI stuff ever comes into play or not. It's Friday before a three day weekend, so that makes me a happy camper. (No no camping this weekend for us... :( sad!)
That's all folks!
